Missions

I will make you a light to the Nations,and you will bring my salvation to the ends of the earth.Isaiah 49:6

River Church sends out missions teams as the Lord directs with the goal of making Him known wherever we go. We also support members of the church and community who are following God's call.

Mac and Lori King - Dominican Republic

After leading short-term mission teams for many years and also serving RCJC as mission pastors, the Lord called Mack and Lori and their three daughters to be full-time missionaries. They currently live and serve as an extension of RCJC in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Follow their ministry on Facebook at “The Kings’ Quest”.

Dan and Cathleen Grix - Local Street Ministry

Dan and Cathleen have a heart for those living on the streets in Philadelphia and also for the unreached in our local communities. Regularly they take teams to bring the love and grace of Jesus to the hurting and broken. Joe St. John has been assisting and leading teams along with the Grix's.

Back to Jerusalem is the goal of the Chinese church to evangelize the unreached peoples from eastern provinces of China, westwards towards Jerusalem. The vision was birthed among the Chinese in the 1920s, and since that time, the churches of China have strove and even suffered persecution to fulfill what they believe is their integral role in fulfilling the Great Commission.

River Church has sent out Dwayne and Tamara Graybill to serve with Back to Jerusalem in Baton Rouge, LA. They live there with their three kids.

Tom and Joanna Sperlich - CRU at Penn State University

Cru has been on campuses for over 60 years, helping students come to know Jesus, grow in their faith and then go to their families, their communities and all over the world to tell others about God’s love.
